Is this article really a stub? It has a section on plot and major characters. Saving possibly a section on critical acclaim (or lack thereof) what can be added?

I'd make it start class if it didn't have that POV tag on it (which I agree with). Nifboy 01:13, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bias

This entry does not read like an encyclopedia. Especially the "Aestethics" [sic] section -- "a wonderful soundtrack that will not bore the player" is a subjective remark. Overall, this article needs to be re-written, or at least cleaned up. --Sfida 01:55, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, honestly, sounded more like a bad review than an article. I worked on it a little while not logged in, I hope it's a bit less biased, but it's also quite a bit shorter. I wonder if such an unnecessary section should even be in the article?Super Pixel Advance 05:21, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

I'm working on it. I didn't ask anyone's permission to start taking it apart, but hey, this is Wikipedia, so I figured I'd contribute on the fly. If I'm totally off the mark, you can call me on it and revert to an earlier version. I hope you like my changes and find them both informative and sufficiently unbiased. :) Radien 07:24, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Added some release dates (as well as flags for localizations), though without the specific days for EU and NA (various sources have different dates). - philemon, 01 Ferbruary 2007

[edit] Purchasing.

Where could this game be purchased? I actually still have the CD laying around, but would like to get the original casing again and manual and map if possible as I'd like to add it to a collection. Brilliant game.

If your console takes PAL CDs you can get a copy from www.chilloutgames.co.uk for £15. Brilliant site, I've ordered loads of stuff from there and although it's second hand they never have a single scratch and always have the full manual and stuff. Dragonfly888 13:04, 27 May 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Expansion

I bought Alundra at my local video rental store (6 bucks, w00t) and I guess I'll try to add more to the character, including pictures of each, aswell as expanding the sections :< Super Pixel Advance 02:41, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

I rewrote the characters section (something it desperately needed), but it could still stand to be expanded on quite a bit. - Dark T Zeratul 10:16, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Add Disambiguation from Debra Miceli?

Professional wrestler Debra Miceli was knwon as Alundra Blayze in World Wreslting Entertainment, then the World Wrestling Federation. Someone looking for her, muight end up here if tyhey could not remember the full stage naem. Would a disambiguation note be acceptable, or even necessary?
